Possible Causes
Shipping bolts not removed, Unit not leveled, Worn suspension rods or shock absorbers, Weak or flexible floor
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Stop the cycle if the machine is moving violently. Unplug before adjusting feet or inspecting underneath.
- Check shipping bolts: For newly installed units, verify that all rear shipping bolts and spacers have been removed according to the installation manual.
- Level the machine: Adjust the front and rear leveling feet so the unit is stable and does not rock. Use a spirit level on top of the machine.
- Stabilize the floor: If the floor is weak or flexible, consider reinforcing it or using an anti-vibration mat designed for washers.
- Inspect suspension: Remove the top panel and inspect suspension rods and shocks for leaks or broken mounts. Replace worn components.
- Load properly: Avoid single heavy items and overloading, which can worsen vibration.
